Lost Data from Frog Poems by Mister Goblin

Take 15 steps and turn we’ll see which side the universe is on
You see it spiraling toward you now and all you can think is just why’d you have to take so long?
Cuz I don’t need another friend just a middle man
I don’t need a sturdy tree or a ceiling fan
To hang my hopes on and watch them spin around and round and round cuz
I am on the track to be
Fired or leaving quietly
Underworked and overpaid
It’s a secret that I’m gonna take right to my grave
I know you’ll meet me there
Drove my car through the kitchen
Lost data for the receiving clinician and I
See a light in the distance
It’s urging me to try and stretch my provisions out
I don’t need another friend just a middle man
I don’t need a fucking job or retirement plan
To hang my hopes on because you know where those all go
I am old enough to be
Dying of liver failure cancer or your injuries
But now I’ll sort it out
It’s embarrassing but it’s worth the wait and doubt
You breathe right through
I don’t even need to think that hard
To summarize the way we got from where we were headed
To where we are
Every memory is like a splinter now
I don’t know how
To mine them for the good
